Healthy Homemade Mayonnaise

Stu: Mayonnaise is right up there as the king of condiments but store-bought versions are loaded with nasties. Ingredients like vegetable oil, sugar and natural flavours (whatever that means) can easily be replaced with healthy, simple and tasty alternatives…

Ingredients (Serves 2 cups)

2 eggs (organic & free-range is best)

¾ teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons mustard (Dijon works well)

1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1 ¾ cups olive oil (light works better than extra virgin)

The juice of ¼ lemon

Method

We recommend a food processor for this one, you can use a hand whisk but it’ll feel like an upper body workout :)

Combine all ingredients (except the olive oil) together in a food processor and blend slowly.

Keep mixing and add the oil little-by-little until you get your desired mayonnaise consistency.

That’s it, done. You can store this in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
